About Patches

Patches is a charming puppy who, along with his siblings, found his way out of an overcrowded shelter. At around 14 weeks old, he shows signs of being a Hound mixed with Australian Shepherd or Pyrenees. Calm yet playful, Patches walks well on a leash and has mastered using a doggie door, making him about 90% housebroken. This affectionate boy thrives in a foster home filled with dogs of different sizes and shapes, and he genuinely loves being petted and receiving attention. Patches is great with kids and gets along wonderfully with other dogs, although he seems a bit timid around cats when out on walks. Adoption requires a preapproved application and a scheduled meet and greet. Patches is already neutered and vaccinated, making him a ready addition to a loving home. What are you waiting for?
